Thanks for teaching me a new word! I am 48 years old and I’ve never heard of the word “tutting” before, but I know exactly what you are referring to. If I was asked to refer to that clicking sound he makes with his mouth, I don’t think I would be able to figure out how to describe it - yet all this time there’s actually been a word for it! lol.

[@SquareNoggin]

I can't stand men who do that. Though I myself try to adopt a fairly placid and warm temperament in both professional and leisurely social engagements - I understand that the world needs assertive strong-willed men, and that they don't always rank gentility as their guiding principle in dealing with others. But when an adult man starts tutting like that for any reason, whether it's directed towards his peers or subordinates or whomever, I start fuming inside and have to restrain the urge to strike them where they stand, like some old school corporal discipline. In fact that's the mental image "tutting" gives me of a man - overgrown petulant schoolboy. It's the white man equivalent of kissing your teeth, another manneurism that boils my blood and immediately darkens my disposition towards a person when they do it in polite company. A young woman can get away with it _maybe,_ but men shouldn't do it at all IMO. In my mind, a man may as well be spitting on the floor when he does that, and if I had my druthers it would be considered a similarly egregious social taboo. Perhaps I'm being a bit hyperbolic, but I suspect I'm not the only one with this pet peeve.

I work in security. I work in the control room. Basically I have first contact with clients/people who need help. The big boss once wanted to know why we were cutting off customers by asking them to stop talking so we can get their safety word and say goodbye (IE "bad customer experience"). My manager looked him dead in the eye and said "who do you want us to pay attention to? The person talking about how his childs friend is staying over and the son wanted to show his friend what the panic button is and how quickly we would phone and how he would be sure to give his child a stern talking to or the woman who is about to be raped who just pressed the panic button? The boss nodded, asked us to keep it respectful and walked out. If a client swears at us, we put down the phone. If a client is being an arse we simply get the sales department to give them a warning and if they keep up their bs they arent a client anymore the next day. Love this job sometimes.

I've kicked people out for being rude to my staff. They asked to speak to a manager. I came over to speak to them and they aired out their grievances without ever mentioning the rude comments and attitude they gave the server. I apologized to them for the server telling them they could leave. I told them she shouldn't have said that, that isn't her place. But I am the owner and I will kindly ask you to leave. I'm not that desperate for a dollar that I'm going to have you here disrespecting my establishment and my staff just because you're paying for food and beverage. I told them their meals were on the house. Please leave. Needless to say, we will not be serving them again. They later went on to blast my instagram account with negative comments on every picture. We simply deleted them.

[@PhantomFilmAustralia]

@@runegeezy Well done, sir! Preserving the integrity of your establishment is paramount. There have been many occasions where the simple rumor of this make people want to dine and spend their hard-earned cash there, as the owner will not tolerate someone else spoiling their night. My humble suggestion would be to substitute the line to these animals from, _"Your meals are on the house"_ to _"Your money is no good here."_ The blatant rejection of a man's money to you for your establishment conveys the ultimate contempt you have for these people, as currency from them alone holds no value. You will receive a round of applause from anyone in earshot. What type of restaurant do you have?

@PhantomFilmAustralia I hear you. I feel like I effectively conveyed the message. When he offered to pay the bill, I quickly told him it was on me with a bit of contempt for him which I could sense he picked up on as I cleared their table and ushered them out of the dining room. I felt like they had a sense of embarrassment because it was about 8:30 on a Saturday night, full dining room, and everyone was watching his party walked out half way through their dinner. I didn't tell him his money was no good or that he wasn't welcome back. But I'm quite certain he picked up on both of those things when we bounced them. I was very overt that we were not happy with the party's attitude, and no amount of money was worth subjecting ourselves to their presence for even a minute longer. They had a pretty big bill.

The worst event for me is the customer blasted me for the food I don't cook, they then told me they wanted to speak with the chef. I go to him and I got his wraith in return. Then due to the stress of being scolded by both chef and customer, juggling what to do list in my mind, looking over 12 tables, dealing with the customers who ask something that's not even on the menu, a customer who wants their food earlier because they're in a rush, oh there's also kids running or playing a toy in the floor. My went blank and I forget everything that I was supposed to do. I'm a walking corpse that night, Thomas Shelby s**t.

This is how it would work: *1.* JC tells me about the irritating customers and I emerge to check them out before giving JC the ok. *2.* JC rounds up his waiters and nods towards the table where the offending customers are seated. *3.* On JC’s command the squad of waiters zooms in and clears everything - plates, glasses, cutlery, wine bottles, you name it - from the table in about fifteen seconds, so only the tablecloth remains. The customers are left sitting there, thinking the table is being cleared for the next course and marvelling at the fantastic service. *4.* JC swoops in, eagle-like, and snatches up the tablecloth. He disappears with it without a word, just whoosh. A few minutes earlier the customers were sitting there, drunk and imperious, now they’re embarrassed. There is nothing but a wooden table in front of them. *5.* The customers get the message - they have been humiliated - and they grab their costs and hurry out onto Bellevue road. And no, they did not have to pay the bill.” (Edit: JC stands for Jean-Christophe Novelli)

Anyone fascinated by Marco who hasn't already seen it, I implore you to watch his Oxford Union interview on here, where he basically just goes off and gives the entire story of his career. You learn exactly how he became the savage that he is. His father sent him to London to look for a job when he was like, 12, and told him to ask to work in hotel kitchens and room in the hotel, said not to even bother coming back if he didn't have a job, only gave him enough for a one way ticket. Just imagine that. He talks about how terrified he was when he knocked on the very first kitchen door to ask for a job and hoped it wouldn't open. He was basically an indentured servant to an unnamed chef who he only described as, "Not a nice man." Which I imagine is really saying something coming from a guy like Marco. And the dude basically worked him to the bone, threw flaming hot pans at his head, and smacked him around on occasion. He eventually left for Paris and just walked around the city all night waiting for the best restaurant in town to open so he could beg for a job. He was pretty much homeless. They gave him a job but only if he started right then and there. So he worked a 16 our shift at the top restaurant in the highest rated culinary city at that time with no sleep and having only worked in a hotel kitchen as a sous chef for a maniac. That's when his real culinary journey began and he eventually ran that restaurant before opening his own at like 19. The dude is an absolute badass and may honestly be a total sociopath but that just makes him even cooler. Edit: When I said he was a 'sociopath' I was being hyperbolic. And when I said that made him 'cooler' I was being ironic. Both of these are used in what is called 'humor'. It's really sad so many of you take everything so seriously... 😞

@@G.tuness his entire speaking, teaching, and communicating style is designed specifically for the purpose of quickly weeding out those who are too weak to even bother starting. Always having a retort ready for him, especially if you are also eagerly learning and improving in the process, shows him you're strong enough to hang with him and he probably respects you for it. But if you're _actually_ shit don't do that.

[@CNDCarManiac]

As a restaurant cook I like this guy's tolerance level on rude and obnoxious customers.

[@MegaHariboboy]

He has a good reaction to patron's who are very entitled. However he was an incredibly nasty man with regards to his staff, something that is overlooked slightly.

[@misteral9045]

I'm sad that you hate yourself.

[@elune43749]

He was a terrible boss

[@Beulabuttress]

Hospitality is one of the most bullying areas to work in. The public act like lord of the manor and treat you like crap, you have to double check every stingy paycheck, and there is an acceptance of verbal and even physical abuse constantly in the kitchens. Having said that, nothing more frustrating than a coworker who wanders about polishing spoons while orders are piling up.

[@vittoprince]

He is truly an inspiration for people working in the service industry.

[@JNunoPictures]

He was just BRUTALLY honest and I'm here for it!

[@jimboslice7862]

Incredibly valid point about your restaurant being sort of like your home - rude people ought to be denied service or straight up kicked out, the customer is not always right

I could see Tom Hardy doing it. He might be too old to do it now but I'm sure that Gary Oldman could do it, too.

"If you gave that to your mother, would she be happy?" That has to be one of the most brutal things I've heard from a chef. You can tell how serious he is too, he says it with a stone cold conviction. No wonder Gordon cried, I would too!
